pH Meter (digital)
£85.00More information
Get the pH of your beverage right, the rest should follow.
A new, handy and accurate pH meter in a waterproof housing with an easily readable display and a replaceable electrode.
Before being used for the first time, or if it has not been used for a long time, the meter will need to be calibrated.
This can be done simply using buffer solutions (not supplied).
Single point calibration, by adjustment of the trimmer inside the battery compartment, is sufficient to the value closest to your use: for beer and wine, calibrate to pH 4.01: for acidity measurements with standard caustic potash solution, calibrate to pH 7.01.
Range: 0.00 - 14.00 pH, reading: 0.01 pH.Accuracy: 0.05 pH
Manual single point calibration.
Complete with soft case, a small screwdriver for calibration and instructions for use.
Operating temperature 0 to 50°C
Power supply DC 3 x1.5V button batteries (supplied) -

Refractometer - with automatic temperature adjustment
£75.00More information
Refractometers are optical precision instruments which determine density on the basis of the refractive index of a liquid.
Its beauty is in accuracy & simplicity of use:
just place a few drops of liquid on the prism, and immediately read off the density.
This quality refractometer has a very clear prism and clear scale division.
It is supplied with box, screwdriver for easy calibration, pipette and instructions for use.
This model is specifically for beer brewers.
It is ideal for checking both the runnings whilst sparging and the wort during the boil.
The scale is 0-18° Plato (specific gravity of 1.00 to 1.074) with an accuracy of 0.1° Plato and it has automatic temperature correction between 10°C and 30°C. -
Sodium Hydroxide aka Caustic Soda
£1.85More information
